Q

Explain the Idea behind insulin being release from pancreatic beta cells

A

Glucose gets taken in by GLUT2;
Glucose encounters glucokinase –> G6P –> metabolism –> less ATP and more ADP
More ADP will close the K+ channel; causes depolarization; Ca2+ comes into cell; Ca2+ and microfilaments cause insulin granules to go to surface of cell and release insulin

97
Q

delta cells in the islet of langerhan release what?

A

somatostatin

98
Q

what does Amylin do in the body?

A
  • slows gastric emptying
  • decreases food intake
  • inhibits glucagon secretion
99
Q

Insulin processing:

insulin is made in beta cells and is made as a ________ peptide that is deposited where?

A

single; secretory granules

100
Q

In the secretory granule, insulin is cleaved into what two things

A

1) alpha/beta chain

2) C connecting peptide (C peptide)

101
Q

List the sulfonylureas

A

1st gen (Tolbutamide, Chlorpropamide, Tolazamide)

2nd gen (glipizide, glimeperide, glyburide)

102
Q

Sulfonylureas work intermittently or constitutively?

A

constitutively (can wear out the cells!!)

103
Q

list the 2nd gen sulfonylureas

A

glipizide, glimeperide, glyburide

104
Q

Main difference between 1st and 2nd gen of sulfonylureas?

A

potency

105
Q

What drug class acts similarly to sulfonylureas but acts for a very short amount of time

A

Meglitinides (or the “glinides”)

106
Q

Describe the qualities of the “glinide” antidiabetic drug class (Metiglinides)

A
  • MOA: like sulfonylureas
  • V SHORT DURATION OF ACTION (1 hr = half life)
  • TAKE TABLET BEFORE EACH MEAL
107
Q

how should/how often should glinides be taken

A

before each meal (bc short acting)

108
Q

Examples of Glinides

A

Repaglinide, Nateglinide

109
Q

which glinide is selective for K(ATP) channels in the pancreas, and not the hear?

A

Nateglinide

110
Q

which glinide has a shorter half life?

A

Nateglinide (nate - works only at pancrease but v short half life)

111
Q

ADE’s for Sulfonylureas

A
  • lasting and prolonged hypoglycemia (b/c long af half life)
  • G.I. problems
  • Wt gain/
  • INCREASED # of SECONDARY FAILURES
112
Q

Drug Interactions for Sulfonylureas:
Which drugs may enhance the action of sulonylureas/increase risk of hypoglycemia due to the DISPLACEMENT of sulfonylureas from protein binding sites

A
  • salicylates
  • phenylbutazone
  • sulfonamides
  • clofibrate (Atromid S)
113
Q

“types” of drug interactions for sulfonylureas

A
  • may cause hypoglycemia (by displacing sulfonylureas from protein binding sites OR a drug has their own hypoglycemic effect and add as an additive)
  • drugs cause hyperglycemia
114
Q

what drugs can interact with sulfonylureas by having their own hypoglycemic effect

A

alcohol

high dose salicylates

115
Q

what are some drug interactions that can oppose the action of sulfonylureas

A
  • oral contraceptives
  • corticosteroids
  • epinephrine
  • thyroid
  • thiazide diuretics
116
Q

why does oral glucose give a higher insulin release than IV glucose?

A

incretin effect

117
Q

Idea behind “incretin effect”

A

peptide hormones (GIP and GLP-1) are released from the intestine after a meal - and go to islet of langerhans to stimulate beta cells

118
Q

what peptide hormones are released from the small intestine that will be used to stimulate beta cells

A

Pro-GIP and PRO-glucagon (will become GLP-1)

119
